“While trying to avoid discussing Ms. Makunts’ diplomatic skills, it is very important to mention that all of the government’s actions in this stage are proof of its inadequate judgment. Besides that, this doesn’t depend on appointing ambassadors. The USA is a transitional state where elections were held and Democrats took office. What does that powerless government want to change with this?” Prosperous Armenia deputy Arman Abovyan told reporters in response to a question about how My Step faction leader Lilit Makunts confirmed that discussions are being held about her being appointed the Armenian ambassador to the USA.
According to Abovyan, all the government’s actions show that the government is not able to adequately assess the situation. “All Armenian lobbyist groups in the USA, without which it is impossible to implement any process, are deeply surprised by this news. This shock is the best assessment.” According to Arman Abovyan, he is trying to understand the purpose and goal of this appointment, but he cannot.
